Why?

Peter Rajnoha from the Redhat LVM/DM Team sent a mail to grub-devel to
ask us about our opinion to this:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2009-09/msg00176.html#

All 3 mails linked at the bottom of the page is all which was talked
about grub-devel related to this topic.

Quote from his 2nd mail after my reply to it:

Yes, that's the case.
